Garden hose guide

Abstract

A garden hose guide including a base having a semicircular top half and a bottom half, a spiral stake having a bottom end and a top end, a torsion member medially disposed within the base, and a circular aperture continuously disposed from a right portion to a left portion of the top half of the base. The torsion member has an upper end, a lower end, a right end region, and a left end region. Each of the right end region and the left end region is disposed outside of the base. The aperture is configured to slidably engage an exterior surface of a garden hose.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A garden hose guide comprising:
 a base comprising a semicircular top half and a bottom half, each of the top half and the bottom half having a bottom surface, a right portion and a left portion, the top half having a top surface; 
 a spiral stake having a bottom end and a top end; 
 a torsion member having an upper end, a lower end, a right end region, and a left end region, the torsion member medially disposed within the base from the bottom half bottom surface to the top half bottom surface, the torsion member lower end attached to the spiral stake top end, wherein each of the right end region and the left end region is disposed outside of the base at a length of at least two inches; and 
 a single circular aperture continuously disposed from the right portion to the left portion of the top half proximal the bottom surface, the aperture disposed parallel to the torsion member upper end; 
 wherein a diameter of the aperture substantially conforms to a diameter of a garden hose, the aperture configured to slidably engage an exterior surface of the garden hose. 
 
     
     
       2. The garden hose guide of  claim 1  wherein the bottom half of the base is concave. 
     
     
       3. The garden hose guide of  claim 1  wherein each of the right end region and the left end region of the torsion member is rubberized. 
     
     
       4. A garden hose guide comprising:
 a base comprising a semicircular top half and a concave bottom half, each of the top half and the bottom half having a bottom surface, a right portion and a left portion, the top half having a top surface, the bottom half of the base having a height of at least two feet; 
 a spiral stake having a bottom end and a top end; 
 a torsion member having an upper end, a lower end, a right end region, and a left end region, the torsion member medially disposed within the base from the bottom half bottom surface to the top half bottom surface, the torsion member lower end attached to the spiral stake top end, wherein each of the right end region and the left end region is disposed outside of the base at a length of at least two inches; 
 wherein each of the right end and the left end are rubberized; and 
 a single circular aperture continuously disposed from the right portion to the left portion of the top half proximal the bottom surface, the aperture disposed parallel to the torsion member upper end; 
 wherein a diameter of the aperture substantially conforms to a diameter of a garden hose, the aperture configured to slidably engage an exterior surface of the garden hose.
